CLUSTER FEED-BROWSER-EXTENSION · 8 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-09-21

YouTube feed control extensions

This cluster consists of browser extensions that alter YouTube's home feed to give users greater control over personalization, often without requiring a Google account or behavioral tracking. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from, as only 0 dated entries exist before the index start, indicating the cluster predates the index or members are undated. On traction, Souschef leads with 4 stars, followed by youtube-age-filter with 1 star and ownfeed with 0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
